Metro Architects offers a full range of architectural services. Our staff has experience in every aspect of construction, from the initial architect design all the way to the final punch list. Our architects have experience in constructing buildings from single family homes all the way up to hospitals and multiple unit office parks. We have extensive knowledge of zoning ordinances and building codes and the variations in these from place to place. We only offer comprehensive architect design services because we know that only by doing that can your dream become realized.

We are fully aware that often times when someone comes to us they don't know every single step that has to be taken in order to complete the project they wish to undertake. More often then not, they have nothing more than a vision of what they want it to become and only know that the first step usually begins with a licensed architect. With the comprehensive architectural services that we offer, it's our goal to make it as easy as possible to get your idea to become a reality. From the beginning our architects will sit with you and discuss the project until they fully understand what it is that you wish to accomplish and how you want it to look.

Often time's projects will require various other disciplines such as a civil engineer or a structural engineer. Included in our architect services is the coordinating all the various personnel needed to make your project occur. As the owner, it can often become difficult or confusing when it comes to selecting multiple disciplines and then being able to coordinate between them all so that things move smoothly and seamlessly from one stage to another. That is why we use our vast database of expert engineers and contractors to supply you with the best possible people for your project and then we will handle all interaction with them so that everything is done right the first time. This is all part of our comprehensive architect design services. In addition to all that, we are able to help with all initial cost estimations, develop project schedules, make any presentations needed, and coordinate any data in regards to the project.

Before any real architect design can begin to take place, the spaces of the building need to be programmed. This consists of reviewing the uses of the spaces that are being designed in great detail and analyzing how they will all need to flow from one to the other and how the spaces will be expected to interact with each other. It also includes the study of the existing spaces and coming up with flow diagrams for the spaces. Often architects will shorten this step and not fully develop how space should relate which results in the spaces never fully functioning. When you are thinking about hiring, be certain that the architectural services include this crucial step.

Another important step that is often not fully completed by architects is a detailed site study that will include all zoning and building requirements for that particular site. At Metro architects we have experts on staff that are well versed in interpreting zoning and building code. Our architectural services include or coordinate this full site study that covers the site layout, site utilities, site utilization studies, environmental studies and more. These steps are vital to the full optimization of the site and are part of the architect design services.

The next stage is initial architect design. Your project will begin to take shape as you work hand in hand with our team. Our architects will take your concepts for the building and begin to put it into actual visible form. Our designers are well versed in all styles commonly found in Florida and are also able to create stunning designs and styles that may not be quite as common. After the architect design services have been undertaken we are able to deliver various different samples of the project. We can produce scale models, water colors, 2D renderings, 3D renderings or just simple sketches. Can your architect design an aesthetic building that will endure time and time again? We can, and we will yield results you didn't think possible.
